"Permission to Be Seen"
by Aurora Jade is a deeply personal debut poetry collection that deals with the universal struggle to feel seen and understood. Divided into four chapters-
roots
,
thorns
storm
, and
bloom
-the book traces the journey from growing unseen in a broken home, navigating heartbreak, and confronting inner turmoil, to learning to embrace and love oneself. Aurora Jade delves into the complexities of family, love, and identity, capturing the vulnerability of wanting to be seen and loved for who we truly are. Raw and unflinchingly honest, this collection gently reminds you that in choosing to be seen, you open yourself to a deeply personal journey of growth, self-discovery, and love.
"you don't need to be seen
to prove you are worth
loving.
For flowers are still beautiful,
even if there's no one there
to see them."
